Tools bar not working correctly!

Whenever I click on a tool, it auto expands, making it impossibly slow to work having to constantly select the tool I want out of the drop down.
This happens for all tools that are expandable and have other options, such as the brush, eraser, paintbucket, and lasso tools.
I have tried a tools reset, and a preferences reset.
Please help!!

Check your OS double click speed setting. Make sure it is not set to zero.
Other than that, the only other thing I've seen cause this is mouse assistive utilities that change a single click event into a double click, or click and hold.

PDF Tool Bar Not Working in Safari

Hi all:
I'm running Safari 5.1.3, Lion 10.7.3 on an iMac.
About a month ago (prior to upgrading to the latest OS yesterday), I noticed that on certain web sites, I am unable to save PDFs after they open up in a new Safari browser window.
This happens most often at Chase Bank.
On almost every other site, when I click on a PDF link, it opens in a new windown, and then if I hover my cursor at the bottom, a pop-up tool bar appears that allows me to save the PDF, which I can then view in Preview.
Unfortunately, this feature doesn't seem to work with Chase Bank anymore.
Is it a problem on their end?
Are there any known solutions?
(I really enjoy having a clean machine, and don't want to install any third-party plug-ins like Adobe Acrobat.)
Thanks for any help.

It looks to be an issue (one of many) with Chase's website.
Their site opens up statement documents in some sort specialized window that prevents the normal PDF view from initiating.
You can confirm this by choosing File >> Save As... from the Safari menus. You'll see that Safari wants you to save it as a "web archive" which means it is not detecting it as a PDF.
But there is an easy workaround:
If you right-click on the document when it appears, you can choose to open the PDF in a new window/tab, which will bring up the usual PDF controls, or you can choose to save the PDF directly to your Mac.

Responsive nav bar not working correctly

Hi All,
The responsive nab bar on the site below is working correctly. When it changes from horizontal buttons to vertical, the sub menu buttons do not display correctly and i cannot work out how to correct it, they should display underneath the menu button when clicked on but they don't?
Appreciate any help please.
http://www.clockdoctors.co.uk/index.html

The below css is all you should need for your media queries. I would think about using some jQuery onClick to show those sub menus as it's way to jumpy.
#nav {
width: 100%;
#nav li {
float: none;
font-size: 16px;
text-align: center;
width: 100%;
#nav li a {
display: block;
padding: 8px 0;
border-bottom: 1px solid #999;
#nav li a:hover{
color: #fff;
#nav li ul {
position: static;
#nav li ul li a {
padding: 8px 0;
#nav li a {
font-size:14px;
margin: 0;

BOXI31 SP3.0 Java 1.6
Strange bahaviour.... when users go to edit a report, there tooll bars seem to freeze up... on the tool bar, there is a bunce of horizontal bars, almost like an accordian?? " |||||||||| "
anyone run into this...???

Hi Michael,
I have not heard of that specific error, but I have had issues with some of the newer Java releases. Check to see if you are on a version of Java newer than 1.6.0_17. But then I am on SP2 not SP3, so that may not matter. Still, the issue sounds similar to some I have come across when the Java version is not compatible.
I had upgraded my Java version without thinking it would matter and spent days trying to figure out what was wrong. Uninstalling the new version and reverting back to an older version was the only thing that fixed the problem.
Thanks

The pencil tool is not working correctly

I've been making my drawing with the pencil tool obviously. After I make a stroke, I continue it with the last anchor point. But sometimes when I do that, the previous stroke disappears completley. Why is that?

That's because Illustrator has got a pretty lame understanding about what should happen when you continue a path in certain angles while the Modify selected paths option is turned on inside the Pencil Tool options.
You can disable that option but I can imagine that this is not what you're really looking for.

Jelly Bean 4.1.2 Punctuation bar not working correctly

Just updated my S3 to 4.1.2 and noticed that when texting or emailing the punctuation bar doesn't show up after you hit the space bar. I have to hit backspace then hit the space bar again for the punctuation bar to show up.
I went into the keyboard settings and turned off the predictive text and unchecked Personalized data but no luck. Any one else having this issue?

Me too. Every time there's an upgrade they take away features I like. There used to be options under Predictive Text that let you personalize some of this, but now the only options are "personalized data" on/off and learning from different accounts. So for it seems like a downgrade, not an upgrade.

Trackpad click bar not working correctly after getting a keyboard replacement.

I just got my whole keyboard replaced two days ago due to a sticking "m" problem on my 2008 macbook pro. They didn't replace my trackpad, but now, it seems that my trackpad clicker will only respond if I apply a lot of pressure to the middle of the upper edge of the bar. If I click anywhere else on the bar, the bar is completely unresponsive. It makes clicking and dragging nearly impossible. I once had this problem when I had a bulging battery, but the battery is fine now. Could something have happened when they replaced the keyboard? It can't be coincidence... Is there a home remedy? I know they will want to replace it if I take it in, and my old maching has been off warranty for a while now.

Either a misalignment or a cable is not properly connected.
Since they just "fixed" the keyboard I'd say take it back as they most likely caused this problem.
If you want to do it yourself, iFixit could be particularly useful:

Eye Dropper Tool (Color Picker Tool) not working correctly - Premiere CC - Windows 8 - Multiple Displays

I'm running Windows 8, Premiere CC 2014 with two monitors. The eye dropper tool (color picker tool) isn't working correctly. It is selecting colors that are not the colors being hovered over. I've reasearched and see solutions to the problem when occurring with Mac, but do not see a solution for Windows. When I disconnect the second monitor, the eye dropper tool works correctly (as described by Mac users). I deleted any profiles for the montors that weren't the same, and still having the issue. I've also tried putting the source monitor on the second monitor, and tried sampling color from there... same result.

Hello All,
Problem solved...I reset all tools in the Tool Preset window. Seems to be working.
Hope this helps someone...
Cheers!

Keyer edge tool does not work. What am I doing wrong?

When I am trying to soften the edge on my green screened image I try to use what they call the edge tool.
But it does nothing to the edge of the image, it makes the entire keyed image more transparent or more opaque... this is totally useless... I thought I remembered this working in a previous version but maybe not...
what am I doing wrong? Or is it just not working correctly.
Thanks for any help.

Do you see the Multifox item to open a new window in the File of Firefox menu?
You will see a "New Identity Profile" (Ctrl+Alt+M) in the "Firefox > New Tab" menu and in the File menu (press F 10 if the menu bar is hidden) and in the context menu if you right-click a link.<br />
Choosing that menu entry will open a new window with a new set of cookies marked multifox-profile-2 in the cookie manager.
It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Profiles
New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files":
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons
If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to check if there is a compatibility update available.
If this hasn't helped then also try to delete the addons.sqlite file.

Function keys are not working correctly

I've been looking all over the various threads and I can't find an answer that solves my problem.
Here are the details:
I bought the computer in the U.S. where I live.
I have a iMac 2.4GHz intel Core 2 Duo EMC 2133 with a 20" screen. Bought it new in February 2008.
I have Mac OS X 10.5.8 (I am waiting for my order for OS Snow Leopard to come in!!)
I have been using a wireless mouse and Keyboard (Love not having cords!)
Recently, my wireless keyboard got a short and quit working. I went down to the apple store and got a new wireless keyboard.
I had the computer with me at the genius bar so, yes, the apple employee saw exactly what I have.
I took it all home got the thing all put back together and got the new keyboard paired up and working with the computer.
Here are the problems:
Went to go use the function keys while using iTunes and found they weren't working properly. The F10, F11 and F12 do not control the volume of sound as the keyboard indicates they would, they instead activate dashboard, spaces, and application windows.
Following the advice of other threads, I looked over in the system preferences and made sure the "Use all F1, F2 etc." box was unchecked (it was unchecked), things still didn't work.
I tried the fn key but it appears to not work at all it has no effect on the functioning of the function keys.
I went under keyboard shortcuts in system preferences and found the F10, F11 and F12 keys, it confirms that those keys control spaces, dashboard and application windows as they are performing but shows no options to either reassign to volume control (as marked on the keyboard) or make the fn key work.
I've gone back and forth trying various combinations of checked and unchecked boxes to see if anything would work, so far I've come up with nothing.
A couple more important or interesting facts:
Yes I have turned off and taken the batteries out of the old keyboard. My bluetooth connection currently shows it as disconnected.
I have restarted the computer.
One thing I find odd; when I go under preferences and go to Keyboard and Mouse when I go under the section "Bluetooth" it shows Bluetooth mouse with the name of the mouse and the battery level. BUT nothing is showing up under bluetooth Keyboard, I can't figure out how to change this and don't know if it is contributing to the problem.
When I go under the bluetooth logo on the top bar I find the mouse and both keyboards referenced, the old keyboard is shown as disconnected and the other two are connected. I have tried to update the device's name but it doesn't seem to let me.
I have double clicked on the device under bluetooth and it shows the new keyboard as discoverable, paired and connected. Hence, I am using the new keyboard to write this inquiry.
Please, any assistance would be of great help. I have tried to be thorough in order help narrow the possible problem. Thanks!!

Just thought I'd let you know. Our suspicions were correct, it was the OS. After I installed Snow Leopard (10.6.8) all the problems were corrected. I also updated the RAM from 1 gb to 6 gb. The mac is working all around better. Sorry it took so long to get back to everyone. My superdrive had pooped out. Rather than replace it I got an external drive from OWC connected with firewire 800. So far everything is running very well, as far as I can tell this external drive is better than the original superdrive. My superdrive has always acted funny, infact I returned the first mac I got after a week because its superdrive was also malfunctioning. Anyway, all that to say everything seems to be fully functioning again.

Screen Not Working Correctly- Horizontal Lines

For the past few weeks, when I open my computer, sometimes the bottom half of my screen is just a lot of lines or is not working correctly. Sometimes if I tilt the screen enough, it will go away. But I don't know what to do!

First step in user troubleshooting is to turn the phone off and back on. If that doesn't help, then a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will restart. If this does not solve it, then a restore from backup, and finally if necessary, a restore as a new device.
You do not indicate what iPhone version you have. You also do not say if the phone has been dropped or any user damage to the screen. If anything, you can make an appointment with the Apple Store Genius bar to get the hardware checked.

Internet Explorer 11 "Enterprise Mode" do not work or do not work correctly!

Dear community,
Since yesterday we test the Feature "Enterprise Mode" for "Internet Explorer 11". However, we have many problems
with this Feature. We have configured it as described by officially instruction by MS, but it does not work
properly. Here is what we have done exactly to test this Feature:
In Registry Key " HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Policies \ Microsoft \ Internet Explorer \ Main \ Enterprise Mode " we have created the Entry " Site List " and create the string " Enable" . In the
String "Enable" we have added no value .
In Case of String "Site List" , we have specified the path to the XML file , as value of this String.
The XML file was created with the Site List Manager from Microsoft
And now, we regocnized following Problems:
The "Enterprise Mode" ist only "active", if the User(!) check "Enterprise Mode" under "Tools"...!
The site list is seemingly ignored, although in the Registry "currentversion" is pulled correctly, everytime we change
the XML File. So we think "SiteList" is configured well.
On one of our test computer freezes Internet Explorer 11 , if you try to hook the corporate mode
In Summary, it seems to be configured properly but it even do not work or not work correctly.
Our goal would be:
Enterprise Mode + access to the Site List by IE11 should be "on" by Default!
Entrys of sitelist.XML should be filtered and shown in "Enterprise Mode" or/and the right "DocMode", as configured.
The user should have no chance to check on or off the"enterprise mode"
We use "Windows 7" on all our Clients, as test Clients are also running the same operating System...
Please reply
Thank you very much
Greetings!
Ps: Please do not be angry if pronunciation or grammar do not fit well. English is not my nature language (my nature language is german)

Hi，
According to your description, seems the end-users can manually turn on\off the enterprise mode, If you don''t want this, you can disable the option.
Computer(User) Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Internet Explorer\Let users turn on and use Enterprise Mode from the Tools menu option
Disable this option, user will not have "Enterprise Mode" under "Tools", after that, please run gpupdate /force to update the policy, and get "Use the Enterprise Mode IE website list" applied again in the target system.
After that, the enterprise mode website list get applied again, and user don't have an option to disable it.

Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in preview.

Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in encore preview. This only happens for a Blu ray project. When a user presses the menu button it should go to the previous menu they were on but it goes to the main menu. When they press the title button they should go to the main menu but it doesn't do anything. My DVD projects work as expected.I've tried creating a new "test" project with different footage and still get the same undesirable results.
Overrides grayed out and set to "not set" for timelines and menus.Project settings and build are set to blu ray. Also I've noticed when I preview a Bluray project the preview window shows a red colored disc next to the Title button when viewing the timelines and green when playing the menus but not so for a DVD project it displays red if motion menus and or timelines are not rendered/encoded. I'm not using motion menus and all the media is encoded according to the project specs.
I've searched this forum but couldn't find the answer. Any help or redirects to a solution would be appreciated. Working with CS5. Thanks.

I found out on my Samsung Blu ray player the remote has a tools button on it that brings up audio, angle, chapter selection etc.and also title selection which is actually the menus and the timelines unfortunately. It's not as easy or direct as last menu selected but it's a workaround at least. I also plan on using a pop up menu. I'll let you know.
